This.
The TV stations around me are desperate to attract the young viewers, so they always have influencers as guests on their shows and what not, and I simply do not get it.
Today’s guest: Billy Bobberson.
What’s he famous for? Oh he posts some selfies on Instagram daily and every other post is a sponsored brand promo.
Why the fuck do people even follow influencers like this???
Because most people are stupid. It is easier for stupid people to follow fake celebrities aka influencers, than to read a book or think for themselves.

I’m in this camp too and have made a recent comment (dev angle) but I genuinely believe most people are stupid lately
I’d go further with it (about celebrity culture and influencers) but I think we’ve heard it all
my genuine shock is just how much people seem to care so much that it affects their daily lives
